been gaming strategy since i was 5 from stronghold crusader / generals to modern aoe4, WH3 i can say by far out of all the best strategy game videos i've seen. Yours is the best one being fast, informative, clear and most important of all actually includes one of the best 27 strategy games.
Dune: Spice Wars received a big update recently including a conquest mode. Its a nice blend of RTS and 4x which I think is a lot of fun to play. The differences between the factions are also very lore appropriate in the Dune universe and fit really well. The devs have shown themselves to be very active in improving the game so got high hopes for the future of this one.
Anything warcraft or warhammer just makes you think of fat bearded nerds, lame shallow storytelling that wants to be lord of the rings but fails to live up to a Saturday morning cartoon show, and big shoulder pads. It's an insult to strategy to say any of those things nourish thought and strategy.
@@DanIel-fl1vc not rly :D wow is maybe for fat ppl but i am that old that warcraft is another game ^^ Generally you talk a lot " an insult to stategy" :D :D :D you have no idea
I love it that you've mentioned Knights of Honor 2, that game is great. My other favorites (that haven't been mentioned in the video). Disciples 2, Rise of Nations, Endless Legend, W40k Dawn of War and expansions, I also love KKND2, but is it good? Dunno anymore.
new subscriber, hands down the best games list video Ive ever seen. not just new games or just one type of strategy game but a comprehensive list of different types of the best strategy games
I'm making my own indie RTS and would love to get covered on this channel! "Nuke Them All" is an exciting indie RTS game set to launch in 2024, and we've already released the Demo, which is why we're reaching out to Steamers. It's a unique game in the style of classic golden-era RTS titles like Z, KKND, and C&C Red Alert. The primary objective is to capture flags and territories, speeding up production, upgrading factories, and ultimately destroying the enemy fort! The demo is LIVE on steam!
@@Tocy777isback0414 look for 9-bit armies and tempest rising these games are coming soon they are like c&c | in the 9-bit armies game there are even some old devs from westwood studios workin there
alternatively to Rome 2 I'd suggest Medieval 2, although it's older and the units can occasionally feel unresponsive it has one thing that, in my opinion, makes it better - all factions are unique. In Rome 2 most factions feel like a copy of each other, while in Medieval 2 (with some exceptions) all factions feel very different to play, for example Poland has a very strong cavalry, making field battles very easy, but they lack good infantry, which means sieges will be much more difficult. There's Spain, who struggle a lot in early game but have really strong units in late game, etc. If you're gonna play it I'd suggest modding the diplomacy, in vanilla it's confusing and sometimes even annoying. It's only changing like 3 numbers in the config so you shouldn't have a problem with it (there are tutorials for it) If you're willing to mod the game though, TW Atilla might be the best choice, because it's the most modern one and will feel the best to play
I picked up against the storm and star wars empire at war. (And the paragon grand strategy bundle for europa 4 and hopefully stellaris (which I’m in the process of trying to get). So far, I’ve only played Against the storm and I like that it is bite-sized. I tried rimworld and ended up returning it because, though I’m sure it’s amazing, I could see playthroughs taking a ton of time which intimidates me. Against the storm works great on the deck and I’m excited to delve deeper into it!
Rome 2 is good, blood&gore dlc is essential and should have been included. Starcraft also had a remaster and a cartoon cover and is still to this day one of the most played games (especially in Korea) i'm addicted to Mecabellum and i'm still playing CNC Generals (which also has a new fan made follow up) i didnt even knew i already have Nebolous and Planetory Annihilation
There is no number 1 here, because it's not rankings, it's a list. As for Warcraft/Starcraft, they are no doubt fantastic strategies, but this list is mainly focused on newer games, because they are more accessible to newer players
Stellaris is a bit overwhelming at start because it punches you with the amount of UI elements altering and monitoring really few factors/resources, but these mechanics are in fact very simple and easy to learn and ignore most of the time. Also it's visuals and music are beautiful And as with other Paradox strategies i strongly advice to just embrace the defeat. You play them to experience an emergent story.
Personnal Top 1 : Chess -Free - Less to no RNG -No real p2w ( I know there is pay for courses but yeah... ) -High depth gameplay -Have many modes ( variants ) -Hard to master -Supported by your parents -Can be play irl or online -Run on even worst pc and if you want RTS, not TB ? Kungfu Chess !
Mount & Blade Bannerlord. If it's not a strategy game, what is it then? Yeah the strategy side in it sucks, but the battles, combat, there it shines. And you do need to have your empire to have that army. Endless Legend. Warlords III Darklord Rising. (Older same series also great: Warlords 2 Deluxe and the original Warlords).
I've started playing Stellaris with all dlc's and have to stay it is impressive! Especially if you add mods that add more immersion (like more events, Amazing Space battles, Diplomatic Espionage mod,.eetc) Just dont add the Traits mod, it will slow down your game massively. Stellaris is really a huge game with so many things to do, I have to agree. Anything you can think of that might happen in a sci fi world, can actually happen lol... Especially that ultimate fear of Elon Musk ;) Im not going to spoil anything, suffice it to say, now I HAVE to try it with the Star wars mod (New Dawn).
Great video! I would however have included Starcraft 2 because of course, how can anyone make a llst of the best strategy games without it, as well as Endless Legend, which is in my opinion the most fun of 4X games, by the same studio that made Endless Space and Humankind.
BTW: Do try older Age of Wonders series games. I dare say, even though not as shiny in graphics, they are very good games. Age of Wonders 3 should be an amazing game. But somehow I find I rather play older AoW games.
Old, but so good, if you like fantasy strategy, you will love it. And you probably don't know it. Sword of Aragon. Check it out, you will not be sorry.
@@Nyxson I am an old strategy games player, I came looking for new games, but sadly I know literally all of the game on your list and I have played half of them. And I mean true strategy games, not pop shit like Age of Empires.
But you called favorite strategy of many peoples childhood "shit", and now calling it "superficial"... still not doing a good part at positively introducing yourself as "old strategy games player"... Tell me then, it my games in this list is not for you, what games are on your top list?
It's a great game, I second the recommendation. Plays a lot like Total War games, but with a better campaign map, although the battles are much more simplistic. For Total War fans like me who prefer the campaign map gameplay, it's a chef's kiss.
I was so waiting for Knights of Honor 2. But I decided not to buy it, because of the limited number of lords under the king's service and how must they are to have. First that only marshals can lead armies and their number is so limited. Second I heard that provinces where you have the economy lord (don't recall the name, governor/trader/whatever) increases this province's output hugely. multiplies it in fact. That sounded so immersion breaking I thought I don't want anything to do with this sh_t. And then later, I saw the combat fiasco and I was glad I skipped it.
@Aurinkohirvi it's not the game that was bad, it's your expectations. That's why you don't get hyped for ANY game. However, to be honest, all the limited lords stuff, it is not really bad, it actually makes it quite manageable and forces you to play tall instead of just wide. It also adds interesting challenge to game. As for battles... yeah they suck, I never even go into battles anymore... and I couldn't have been happier. Try it
@@Nyxson Sure you can enjoy the game but it is still a bad development choice to FORCE your hand with the artificial limit of marshals and merchants. I get it that it is a simple easy to learn game, but that doesn't justify bad features. I wish they had an option to remove them province and army leaders completely or nerf them, or increase their number. But I suppose their game engine can't handle it. In Civilization III the high corruption further away you were from the capital, rendered big empire cities unable to produce anything. In the real world colonial era sure you had to manufacture weapons (and armor) and ships in Europe, but colonial lands were not just something you took away from other players so they can't rise: they actually produced wealth and goods to the empires. Civ III corruption was a simple but bad attempt to balance the game, and so is KoH2 solution. If this artificial way to "play tall" is removed, and players can choose where to develop their economy and how many armies they can have, I would consider the game. Now I rather play the more difficult games.
@@Nyxson Maybe modding can overcome some of what I consider design flaws (which I've seen only in game reviews) in KoH2. Gotta check that at some point.
@@Nyxson It doesn't matter tho, why the misleading title? affiliate links under each video and not in the channel description, etc. Like I don't even have the power to argue, but I guess people need to make money somehow.
@Kierak video has been up for years now and you are the only one who was "mislead"?! Not a single thing I said in the video was a lie or misleading and sorry that I added an affiliate link a month ago for the video that already was old, that must be so damaging to you and everyone
In my opinion you only focused on rts and management games. Tactical games are my favorite and are great strategy games. Mix in some fire emblem and xcom and I can buy the title of *best strategy games*.
@@Nyxson First of all I play xbox series x and ps5 consoles. I consider civilization 6 or anno 1800. I prefer to be focused on economy and I would like to avoid battles if it is possible. Sorry for my english i hope I you know what I ment to...
@hipermlexon Interesting... Those are good choices, however, I would choose Anno over Civilization, since Civilization series do have a combat. So Anno is a good choice. I can also suggest Cities Skylines if you like modern city building (first game, not Cities Skylines 2, not yet). I can also suggest Dyson Sphere Program if you like scifi and like building complex systems, And Timberborn, if you don't mind city building with beavers
@@Nyxson I just need some games to play. There are some light ones like Papers Please which are very good! Minecraft and Terraria too. But I'm thinking more in the realm of strategy games.

Has to be one of the best list presentations ever. Wasnt just randomly naming games but actually had them lined up so they flowed together. 10/10

I'm making my own indie RTS and would love to get covered on this channel! "Nuke Them All" is an exciting indie RTS game set to launch in 2024, and we've already released the Demo, which is why we're reaching out to Steamers.

The primary objective is to capture flags and territories, speeding up production, upgrading factories, and ultimately destroying the enemy fort!

Very straightforward video. Good taste in strategy games in my opinion!
For a recent list, one of the best strategy games is Gates of Pyre; every StarCraft fan will love it.
What are you talking about? Is it even out yet?
@@Nyxson It had a playtest this month
A couple of RTS games to throw on the list
- Dawn of War 1 + 2
-Command and Conquer series
-Iron Harvest
-Crossfire Legion
I wish there were more games in the vein of C&C
@@Tocy777isback0414 look for 9-bit armies and tempest rising these games are coming soon they are like c&c | in the 9-bit armies game there are even some old devs from westwood studios workin there

If you're willing to mod the game though, TW Atilla might be the best choice, because it's the most modern one and will feel the best to play
I picked up against the storm and star wars empire at war. (And the paragon grand strategy bundle for europa 4 and hopefully stellaris (which I’m in the process of trying to get).
So far, I’ve only played Against the storm and I like that it is bite-sized. I tried rimworld and ended up returning it because, though I’m sure it’s amazing, I could see playthroughs taking a ton of time which intimidates me. Against the storm works great on the deck and I’m excited to delve deeper into it!
Rome 2 is good, blood&gore dlc is essential and should have been included.
Starcraft also had a remaster and a cartoon cover and is still to this day one of the most played games (especially in Korea)
i'm addicted to Mecabellum
and i'm still playing CNC Generals (which also has a new fan made follow up)
i didnt even knew i already have Nebolous and Planetory Annihilation
Was warcraft 3 number one, and it was accidentally skipped or did i miss something?
Slash / StarCraft?
There is no number 1 here, because it's not rankings, it's a list. As for Warcraft/Starcraft, they are no doubt fantastic strategies, but this list is mainly focused on newer games, because they are more accessible to newer players
@@Nyxson ahh ok..yeah I need to check out these new games
Your transitions are so smooth and thoughtfully done. Great video!
Stellaris is a bit overwhelming at start because it punches you with the amount of UI elements altering and monitoring really few factors/resources, but these mechanics are in fact very simple and easy to learn and ignore most of the time. Also it's visuals and music are beautiful
And as with other Paradox strategies i strongly advice to just embrace the defeat. You play them to experience an emergent story.
Great video! I missed StarCraft II
Also "The wondering village" is a very chill game, quite similar to Timberborn for the survival mechanics
Top 30 would contain:
- Knights & Merchants 2 (or the remake version)
- Tropico 2 The Pirate Cove
- Farthest Frontiers
I do know Rimworld and love it. I would add Battle Brothers to the list personally.
Personnal Top 1 : Chess
-Free
- Less to no RNG
-No real p2w ( I know there is pay for courses but yeah... )
-High depth gameplay
-Have many modes ( variants )
-Hard to master
-Supported by your parents
-Can be play irl or online
-Run on even worst pc
and if you want RTS, not TB ? Kungfu Chess !
And it also has the best top title... "Grand Master"...
I never found any game that was able to replace warcraft 3 for me.
teljesen egyetértek
I keep forgetting I have most of these games in my library every time I watch these videos.
Battle for Middle Earth series should be in here somewhere man. Cool list though...
The fact that all of my faoare on here is amazing, i love nebulous, supreme commander, stellaris and hoi4❤
Mount & Blade Bannerlord. If it's not a strategy game, what is it then? Yeah the strategy side in it sucks, but the battles, combat, there it shines. And you do need to have your empire to have that army.
Endless Legend.
Warlords III Darklord Rising. (Older same series also great: Warlords 2 Deluxe and the original Warlords).
Well done with the video 👍
bruh, great video. but I only need one, there's a lot to choose from your list

Good stuff … some games I wasn’t aware of.
Great video.. so glad I found your channel. I have a few of these, unplayed, in my Library. Time to drag some out
During your live Nick. I promise I will say StarCraft should be in the list. 😅
pity that the game "SunAge" was not developed further because it had a huge potencial looking at how you can fight in it
STRONGHOLD is not on your list,that is my favorite most realistic strategy Game of all time
Yes, especially Stronghold Crusader 2 and Warlords. They are amazing.
Great video!
I would however have included Starcraft 2 because of course, how can anyone make a llst of the best strategy games without it, as well as Endless Legend, which is in my opinion the most fun of 4X games, by the same studio that made Endless Space and Humankind.
i also want to add Northgard and The Battle of Polytopia.
Love the suggestions!
very nice list. Thank You :)
Original War game is on the top of the best RTS games, but the problem of this game is it is not very popular, look at this game
Steam sale on all strategy games until September 4th. Go go go
Rise of Nations, StarCraft 2, WarCraft 3, Command & Conquer, you missed a lot of obviously best strategy games.
You obviously missed the fact that I mentioned that this list will not include old games
Thank so much, very great video ma friend :)
Great list! But don’t forget to breathe 😅
I thinks That Company Of Heroes 1 deserves place in the video too 2-3 just isnt as good as the original but cool video.
BTW: Do try older Age of Wonders series games. I dare say, even though not as shiny in graphics, they are very good games.
Age of Wonders 3 should be an amazing game. But somehow I find I rather play older AoW games.
It is a sin that command and conquer kanes wrath is not on here
Hello my friend. I hope You are fine. Can you also make a video of this new upcoming RTS game called (Red Chaos - The Strict Order)? will be cool

Cool list but it's a bit hard to know what you are saying I'm not native and you're a very fast talker haha
great video
How is there 27 games BUT NOT ONE COMMAND AND CONQUER GAME? HOW>?
You might have noticed that these games are a bit new. C&C is too old for most modern gamers (even though I myself grew up on Generals and Red Alert
Dawn of war series... How you do not mention it?
You confirmed you don't know anything about games when u chose Total war Rome lol
Rise of nation is also a classic!
Sorry but, Total war Three Kingdoms is lot funnier than Wh and Rome 2
BRO NEED A FREE ONE
dune spice wars is a masterpiece!
Good video
Yeah but have you heard of this game called Age of Empires 2 😜
❤️❤️❤️
It's an inside joke 😊
this dude didnt put any C&C in there what the actual hell
This dude also didn't include Populous, Total Annihilation and ton of games… because this is not an OLD games list! Only newer games (more or less)
Why not 30 or 25, or even 28, but 27? That's a weird number, isn't?
Man…. That is a question that has an answer with a lot of background… TLDR I came up with this number by discussing it with the viewers
bro where is spellforce 3 on this list ? no one ever heard of it ?
There are a lot of games not on the list... that's why there will be another 😊
@@Nyxson glad to hear it ✌️
I thought I was listening at x1.5
Where can i get Age of empires 3: asian dynasties
Starcraft 3 is easily my fav...
wait..
Do a list of games for people with potato PC
That is ACTUALLY a very good idea... however... define potato PC...
@@Nyxson 230$ - 4 gb ram, intel pentium, integrated graphics.
@@Nyxson I just need some games to play. There are some light ones like Papers Please which are very good! Minecraft and Terraria too. But I'm thinking more in the realm of strategy games.
Oh man, that's not a potato PC, that's a smart watch PC 😂 I see what can I do.... and I have already started my research for that list
@@Nyxson Oh wow great! Looking forward to it!... And yeah, hopefully I get a proper PC one day XD
None of these are really that hard for people looking for something really hard try feudal wars in a free for all against 3 ai in insane difficulty
You forgot Bloons TD 6 🙂🔪
bruh . where is battle for middle earth rotwk ? that's the best strategy game even 20 years later
It's in our hearts...
Black & White 1 and 2

Order of battle world war ii is a great game for me
Great video, too bad its in Persian, but I understood some.

Total War Rome 2 is the worst version of the game and the best new one is Shogun
